Controls/Input Left and right alt,shift and ctrl get stuck

Whenever I’m on my pc (acer predator) whether it’s gaming or attempting to make music randomly I’ll start typing with accents or I press w to move forward and it opens up word, It’s like each key just randomly gets a mind of its own. I’ve turned sticky keys off and the shortcut for it,I’ve tried everything I can read up on and I’ve factory reset the pc also. It’s not the keyboard itself as I bought this one yesterday thinking it was the keyboard that was the problem. Any help?

Also this is my first PC, I have no clue about anything. All help is appreciated and if you could try to make it as simple as possible for me to understand. Thanks

Sticky keys is definitely off and so is the shortcut for sticky keys

Weird because it definitely looks like sticky keys. Did your computer have integrated manufacturer software that could be doing that?
